Hi, I need help sourcing replacement Snap-fix Glazing Bar Caps.

The existing plastic caps have been warped and loose since I moved in 6 years ago, and I've recently discovered a rainwater leak causing internal panels to come loose.

As seen in the photos, the seals are failing. I’m looking for this specific profile or a reliable "push-to-fit" universal replacement.

I’m based in Sutton (London). Any local supplier or online store recommendations would be great. Thanks!

You have blackspot mould forming due to condensation - due do very poor roof detailing. I'd be more inclined to worry more about that than the capping.
 
HI noseall, thanks for pointing that out. I assumed it was just moss or external dirt, but you might be right about the mould. Given the 'poor roof detailing' you mentioned, do you think replacing the entire glazing bar system with a better-insulated one would solve both the leak and the condensation? Or is this a sign that the entire roof structure needs a more professional overhaul?
 
I would make a detailed drawing of the design, with as many measurements as you can.
I built a conservatory early 90’s with plastic capping and later had to buy a new system as the plastic capping suffered UV damage.

I replaced with an all aluminium one.
